🌾❤️ Holiday Giving Drive – Rice & Beans for Hungry Bellies Inc. ❤️🌾

As we step into the holiday season, many families in our community are struggling to put even the simplest meals on the table. This year, Rice & Beans for Hungry Bellies Inc. is stepping up once again — and we need your help to make sure no one goes without a warm, comforting meal.

We’re collecting bags of rice and dry bags of beans (any size, any brand!) to support families, individuals, and even their pets who need a little extra love this season. Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference.

✨ How you can help:
• Drop off rice and dry bags of beans directly to me
• Sponsor a family by donating in bulk under my nonprofit
• Share this post to spread the word
• Message me if you’d like to coordinate a pickup

Together, we can fill more bellies, share more joy, and make the holidays brighter for those who need it most. Thank you for supporting our mission and helping us continue to serve our community with love. ❤️

Hello everyone. It’s the New Year and with all the monetary donations we have received we believe that we will do more than 120 lbs of rice and beans and we can’t be more excited. We are in the process of getting a hold of a local food pantry and as soon as we figure out the drop off hours it’s on! Follow us for more!

Hello everyone,

As the holiday season approaches, it’s a time for warmth, giving, and community. Sadly, many families in our area struggle to put food on the table during this season. That’s why I’m reaching out on behalf of Rice and Beans for Hungry Bellies Inc. If you’re able, we would greatly appreciate donations of rice or beans.

Just one 2-pound bag of dry beans provides 24 servings, and a 2-pound bag of rice serves about 20 people. Even a small contribution can make a big impact. Fun fact: rice can even help nourish pets in need, too!

If you feel moved to help, please consider donating a bag or two to support those in need in our community. Together, we can make a difference. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

A group of dedicated individuals are gathering various donations to support those impacted by Hurricane Helene in North Carolina. We contributed 44 pounds of rice and 19 pounds of beans to assist in their efforts. The donations will be delivered to the United Cajun Navy or Maple Ridge Baptist Church for distribution to those in need.

Recipe for Rice and Beans

This is my quick version of Puerto Rican style beans, which I make with either pink or red canned beans and diced potatoes, perfect when you need a quick side.
